Mines in BOLIVIA.

The Guanaco gold mines continue a
theme of speculative topic A correspond
ent thus speaks OF some of the lodes "a
great many mines are being worked but
the list is too long for publication. | will
mention some of them. Work has been
in progress in the Defensa for less than a
year, and the owners have taken out $780,
900 in gold. The Emma Louisa is a lode
AZ meters thick, and at the face is 100 me-
tiers in length. Within very short period
the owners have taken out 1O2 kilo-
grammes Of gold. The Perseverance, was
started with a capital of 100000, and
none of the shares are purchasable. The
mine of San Lorenzo produced 81 kilo-
grammes of gold the first fifteen days it
was worked. Quartz taken out of mine
at Remolinos gives $50 ounces to the ton
but the general run of the ore is said to be
only 30 ounces to the ton. A vein of ma
tive gold has been struck in the Republic
mine, and the average lay of the ore from
the ledge is steady at So ounces. Lodges
assaying from four to FIVE ounces cross the
surface of the hill in all directions. 1t is
calculated that $4,000 quintals of ore are
in sight in the mines owned by Belisario
Caceres. The San Lorenzo and Providencia
mines, at Guanaco turned out recently in
one day 50 bags of ore, which brought up
the stock in the dressing yards to 500 bags.
1t is calculated that the net profit in Au-
gust will reach the sum of $4,000"

TIE Crown Prince of Germany is
doomed to end his career in the very
prime of manhood. 1t might be much ex-
tended, and possibly the danger of death
from cancer be removed by excision, but
with a heroism that does him infinite
credit, he refuses to submit to sur
gical operation in order to spare his
aged father anguish and suffering that
would follow an i'll result. He prefers
that Kaiser William shall finish his DAYS
with the hope that his son may succeed
him. The certainty that the grandson OF
the Emperor viii soon be the Ruler OF
Germany is now no longer remote. The
fact will have most important influence
upon the politics of Europe. The prospec-
tive ruler is a warlike youth, is said to be a
man whowill receive peaceful counsels with
ill-concealed oomposure, and entertains
hopes not only of belligerent policy toward
France, but of conquest. Possibly when
invested with power he will become more
conservative. Weight of authority gener-
ally brings with ii sobriety of thought. 1t
is to be hoped that this will hold good in
the case of the young Prince, and that his
impetuosity will not lead him to take
counsel from those who desire to embroil
Germany in another war.

CHARITY UNIONIsM.

Judging from the remarks of Rev.
Horatio Stebbins before the Executive
Committee Of the Pacific Coast Conference
of Charities, the outlook for closer CO.
operation of charity associations in the
future is very bright. He expressed the
belief that scattering talk and mere theo-
rizing was about over, and that at the next
annual convocation there would be accom-
plished some practical work. The best
methods of reform in charitable exercise
would be the one theme, and that would
be considered from practical and bust
ness-like standpoint In other words, the
reverend gentleman gave his hearers to
understand that if good work is to be ac-
complished in preventing the misuse of
charities and waste Of energy the millen-
NAL and utopian takers would have to be
curbed, and the idea was received in such
cordial manner that it may be taken for
granted this will be done. 1t is to be
hoped that this new policy will lead to a
careful consideration of the proposition to
establish central agency of detection and
advice. To this all charitable organiza.
lions would report their work and distrib-
ute this information back to and among all
the societies. 1t would also, in all cases of
doubt regarding relief applied for, be able
to report to the society applying the exact
status of the case in hand, for the agency,
by district system of inspection, would
keep itself informed of all cases of real dis
trcss. Under such a system repeating"
imposition and shifting of professional beg
gars from one jurisdiction to another. in
order to avoid detection, would be nearly
impossible. People would cease to give
in indiscriminate charity, but refer appli-
Giants to the agency, which, in turn, if the
case was worthy, would report to the
proper society to take charge of that par
ticular case. The plan has many other
advantages, but the chief are the unity of
effort it would conserve and the imposition
it would prevent. There is no reason why
the almoners of public charity should not
know each what the other is doing, that
there should be no waste of energy or of
charity funds. There is every reason why
they should have mutual protection sys-
TEN similar to that existing among bust
ness houses, by which they prevent the
from obtaining credit.

improved sanitary condition, in prepare
ton for possible outbreak of cholera in a
few months. He is careful to say that he
does not wish to alarm the people, and
believes the cholera can be kept out yet
the health authorities deem the condi-
tions such that preparation for the possible
is demanded by good judgment. Practic-
ally, this is confession that not sufficient
care was taken in quarantining the Alesia
and independents, and that the careless
ness of the officials at Hoffman Island has
exposed the country to the menace of
terrible scourge. The committee of physi-
clans from the College of Philadelphia
who examined into the quarantine precau-
tions taken at New York, Philadelphia
and Boston were correct in their announced
judgment that the United States has been
exposed to the plague through the gross
negligence of health and quarantine
officials of those cities 1t is not a moment
too early for all cities, great and small, to
enter upon the cleaning up process. 1t
takes many months to effect much in the
sanitation of town, and it is never too
soon to begin to improve health conditions.

There was final tug, and the fashionable
youth in dress suit, with CLASSY eyes and
flushed face, who was sprawling halfway
out the second-story window of a small and
fashionable hotel, was pulled inside by his
riotous companion. The hotel fronted on
prominent thoroughfare. The strangers
who had seen the spectacle at the window
went ON their way wondering what it all
meant, or stood in groups still casting
amazed and curious glances up at
the now vacant window But the
freauenters of the thoroughfare sim
ply smiled, cynically, perhaps,
flushed youth who had been hanging over
the window sill had not been permitted to
carry out his apparent purpose of amusing
himself by shying a bottle at the tray of
images that poor Italian vender who was
passing below carried on his head. The
spectacle was not new one to the loungers
round about. The party we're only part of
the guests at farewell bachelor dinner,
and in their enthusiasm to wish the bride
ply filled themselves up to the brim with
half dozen blendings of wine topped off
with a pony of brandy. OF course they
were all the sons of rich men. 1t is only
the sons of rich men who can afford
the expense of saying good-by to the
friends of bachelor days at one of these
debauches that have come TO be part of the
fast and fashionable life Of young set in
the prim old Quaker town. Very few of
these slips of fashion are content nova
days to marry without this final debauch,
at which the health of the bride is loudly
drank by the noisy guests in bumpers of
champagne. The glasses are thrown with
a crash into a fireplace or some other con-
venient receptacle while the men, with the
fumes of wine mounting in their already
befuddled brains, keep up a pandemonium
all in the name of goodwill and in which
the name of the bride-likely a sweet
modest girl, who would shrink in horror
from this rout--resounds again and
again. The appointments and menu
are always, of course, Of the
most expensive character. Anything with
less than four brands of wine and liqtiors
counts for little. There are flowers galore,
music, and whatever else money can pro-
cure 10 crafty the senses. A rivalry of
ostentation keeps the standard of expensive
ness going up constantly, and the last bride
groom apparently sets out with determina-
ton to outdo his predecessors. So many
disgraceful scenes have taken place at these
routs, given at q time when, above all
others, young fellow should be most
thoughtful, that q vigorous criticism among
the more conservative members of society
is likely to check a course Of debauchery
which in its present aspect is quite new in
this quiet old town.
